Keeping the promise

Kou Zhuangming looked at the people behind Li Yunting, his eyes revealing a hint of panic. His gaze quickly swept over everyone, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

But soon, that trace of panic was replaced by ferocity, he was like a wolf that was cornered but still determined to fight to the death.

He let Zheng Wancheng down from the hanging position, strangled her neck tightly with his arms, used her as a hostage, and shouted at Li Yunting: "Li Yunting, come here!" Kou Zhuangming's voice was sharp and hoarse, and the veins on his arms bulged due to excessive force. Zheng Wancheng was strangled to the point of being almost unable to breathe.

Li Yunting frowned, a deep "川" character formed between his eyebrows, and his eyes were as sharp as torches, as if they could penetrate Kou Zhuangming.

He said loudly: "Kou Zhuangming, the feud between us should not involve women. I am willing to exchange her!" His voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the empty abandoned factory.

Every word he spoke was filled with unquestionable determination. His eyes never left Zheng Wancheng, and they were filled with concern and worry.

Kou Zhuangming yelled hysterically: "Everyone else step back. Li Yunting, put down your weapon, kneel down and come over to change!" His voice broke with excitement, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and dripped onto Zheng Wancheng's shoulders.

Li Yunting agreed to Kou Zhuangming's request without hesitation. There was no sign of retreat in his eyes, and he slowly put down the weapon in his hand, which fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Then, he knelt on his knees, and when his knees hit the ground, a small cloud of dust was raised. He moved step by step towards Kou Zhuangming and Zheng Wancheng, and each step seemed extremely heavy, but full of determination.

Zheng Wancheng's eyes widened, looking at the man in front of her in disbelief, who was willing to kneel down and die for her. His resolute face looked extremely resolute at the moment, as if he had already put life and death aside.

Tears flowed uncontrollably from Zheng Wancheng's eyes like a flood that broke through a dam, instantly blurring her vision.

She stretched out her shaking hands, wanting to touch the man's face, but she was afraid that this was just an illusory dream. Tears slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, splashing small teardrops.

Zheng Wancheng's heart felt like it was being pierced by thousands of needles at the same time, the pain was so severe that she could hardly breathe.

As he approached, Li Yunting quietly gave Zheng Wancheng a gesture. It was an extremely subtle movement, a secret code that only they understood.

His fingers moved slightly, and his eyes quickly glanced at Zheng Wancheng. Zheng Wancheng understood instantly, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

She blinked slightly to show that she was ready. Although her heartbeat was accelerating at this moment, as if it was about to jump out of her throat, she believed in Li Yunting and believed that they could resolve this crisis together.

She silently encouraged herself in her heart: "You must stay calm and cooperate with Yun Ting."

Li Yunting continued to try to calm Kou Zhuangming as he moved: "Kou Zhuangming, don't be impulsive. As long as you let her go, we can discuss everything."

Kou Zhuangming roared, "Stop talking nonsense! Come here quickly!"

Li Yunting quickened his pace, his knees rubbed against the rough ground, his pants were torn, and blood oozed from his knees, but he seemed to feel no pain.

Zheng Wancheng could clearly feel Kou Zhuangming's body trembling, and she knew that Kou Zhuangming was on the verge of collapse.

She said softly, "Kou Zhuangming, there is no way out for you to do this. Let me go. Maybe there will be a chance of success."

Kou Zhuangming yelled, "Shut up! You all want to deceive me!"

At this time, Li Yunting was already very close to them. He stared at Kou Zhuangming's arm that was strangling Zheng Wancheng's neck, looking for the best opportunity.

Zheng Wancheng could feel Li Yunting's gaze. Her body tensed slightly, ready for action at any time.

Just when Li Yunting was about to approach them, Kou Zhuangming suddenly shouted, "Stop! Don't get any closer!"

Li Yunting stopped immediately and said, "Okay, I won't move. Don't hurt her."

Kou Zhuangming became more and more agitated: "Li Yunting, it's all your fault! Today I'm going to make you feel the pain too!"

Just when Kou Zhuangming was about to exchange Zheng Wancheng for Li Yunting, Li Yunting suddenly pulled Zheng Wancheng away like a cheetah.

His arms were throbbing with veins, his muscles tensed, and he burst out with great strength. However, Kou Zhuangming was very alert, like a frightened bird, and quickly reached out to grab Li Yunting. His fingers scratched in the air, but unfortunately, he missed.

In anger and humiliation, Kou Zhuangming's eyes were bloodshot and his facial features were distorted beyond recognition.
